CT and Bone Scan

Remington's blood counts came up quickly and hence he was in the hospital during his 10th birthday. He has now completed his sixth chemotherapy treatment. He is definitely a Jackson and becomes a bit ornery when he does not eat and his blood sugars are low.

On April 8, 2009, Remington had a CT scan and a Bone Scan to measure the progression of the tumor. The CT scan demonstrated that Remington's tumor now measures 4 inches by 2 inches. The Bone Scan revealed there was decrease in the intensity in the 4th, 8th, and 9th lateral left ribs. ( less likely they are going to have to take his ribs). Now, we wait for the physicians to discuss when Remington will undergo surgery. The physicians will discuss Remington's case in the next couple of weeks.

Remington's spirits are high and he has a great attitude. Thanks for all the support.
